Breastfeeding advice

Hi guys Currently pregnant with no other children. Bit of a weird one but I’m wondering if anyone’s had experience breastfeeding with nipple scarring. I’ve previously had mine pierced but removed them a couple of years ago. They’ve left some scars so I can’t help worry this will stop me from breastfeeding. Kicking my younger self!

I used to have one nipple piercing but removed it a few years ago. Im breastfeeding my 10 week old and we have had no issues.

I've had mine pierced twice and have had no issues breastfeeding, don't fret! :)

Had mine pierced years ago, took them out years ago and have since breastfed 2 kids and it never effected it

I took my piercings out when I was about 16 weeks pregnant, no issues and breastfeeding my 4mo xx

I have nipple scaring but no issues breastfeeding at all

I had some more blocked ducts on the boob that was previously pierced and got told that that can happen. But I’ve still fed by first exclusively til 18 months and am feeding my 5 month old now. Was just worth to get advice on how to deal with issues I experienced from a lactation consultant. Sunflower lecithin and a Hakka pump (suction with Epsom salts) usually sort blockages for me relatively fast. It never got to mastitis

Aww these are all reassuring thank you guys 😊
